Hey Alex, Thanks for your input and sorry to get back to you only now. I was away. I do have the RT version of Amibroker. Also, I'm registered to Amibroker forum were people can exchange trading ideas and technical stuffs. I recommend you to register as well. Cheers

Thanks Dimeo for the reference. I will look-it up. And thanks for the tip too. Perhaps the answer is to keep swing trading until I get the right capital for day trading. I appreciate your input. jo

Tomasz, Thanks for your reply. Fair enough. If many more Amibroker users need another feature than the one I'm looking for, I'll have to wait. Elite Traders, If anyone can suggest me an auto-trading platform until then, this would be appreciated. Jerry, Congrats for the Quote Tracker...

I'm looking for a trading platform (not a brokerage station like Tradestation, but rather a separate software) that would be compatible with my Ameritrade account. There are so many of them that I don't know which one to consider and which one to avoid. I want to be able to run strategies...
